Ctrl - jump
Alt - pogo stick (after you obtained it)
Ctrl Alt (pressed at the same time) - fire blaster
If you did not time it well you could end up doing an "advanced" pogo high jump (by pressing Alt just before Ctrl) when you intended to zap a Vorticon.
Commander Keen 4 improved the controls with a dedicated fire button. It also had one of the best control schemes, gameplay, and art for that generation of platform games.
